Musings of an adventurous empty nest mom on everything under the sun.
You Are Gymnastics You are agile, expressive, and precise. You have the drive to practice until you get something perfectly right. And you have the confidence to perform difficult moves when under pressure. What Olympic Sport Are You? Stolen from Grandy and right in line with the current addiction in my house!
Thanks so much to everyone who answered my question last week! Of course it was not enough of a sampling to be anything scientific or official, but it did confirm my suspicion that there are more anti-Obama viral emails out there than any others. Note that a check over at Snopes or FactCheck.org wasn't also... Continue Reading →
I realize that yet again we may be the last people to get into this trend. Yesterday after the middle school orientation, Sportsboy and I had some time to get to know our Wii.

Saturday I finally had some time to play in the yard. MusicMan had been bringing home plants from work - basil, corn and watermelon.
